Our oldest texts and religious writings speak of a golden race dwelling in utopian bliss before losing their way and suffering annihilation in a worldwide catastrophe.
In a groundbreaking reappraisal of sacred texts, from the Book of Genesis to the Mayan prophecies, Ian Lawton uncovers what he believes is the key to deciphering the true origins of our ancestors. He argues that the evolution of the modern human race received its most supreme cultural impetus around 100,000 years ago, thus giving a philosophical interpretation of the universal stories of fallen angels.
With chapters on mythology, evolution, archaeology, geology and science, this comprehensive and scholarly work combines history and philosophy with startling results. Profoundly significant for the human race at the beginning of the twenty-first century, it will change not only the way we look at the past but even more so at the future.
